Answer:

If you multiply a decimal by 10, the decimal point will move one place to the right. If you divide a decimal by 10, the decimal point will move one place to the left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying a decimal by 10 increases the value of each digit by 10. Multiplying a decimal by a power of 10 increases the value of each digit by a number of times that is equivalent to that power of 10. When a digit's value is changed, that digit is moved to the appropriate place.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the tip varies directly with the number of guests, it means that an increase in the amount of tip would be as a result of an increase in the number of guests and a decrease in the amount of tip would be as a result of an decrease in the number of guests.

If we introduce a constant of proportionality, k , the relationship would be

t = kg

Given that

When t = 18, g = 10, then

18 = k × 10

k = 18/10 = 1.8

Therefore, the equation representing the relationship is

t = 1.8g
